What I Wore Wednesday

This week is all about stonewashed (some might say acid washed) (either way it screams 1987, but in a good way) denim, maxi dresses, mixed gold and wedges.

Given my druthers (whatever druthers are), this is the type of outfit I'm most comfortable in.

Pulled together yet comfy, casual yet still a tad dressy.

Ish.

I wore this to church, cajoled Scott into taking photos as we walked into BJs for lunch and opted to wear it to the movies later that afternoon (my people changed) (we saw Monsters University, just FYI) because it was so comfortable.

One thing I've started to do recently with my denim shirts (really any long sleeve shirt, I just don't wear a lot of them because I might faint from heatstroke) and jackets is to cuff them like the J Crew stylists do and I like this look a lot better than the basic way of rolling up the sleeves. Just pull the cuff midway up your arm then roll the remaining (inside) sleeve up, that way the edges of the cuff stick out a bit and add a bit of interest. Or something. I don't know, it just looks better.

Check out how Shaeffer of Pinterest Told Me To explains sleeve rolling, that's where I learned this valuable fashion tidbit. And how I realized I could not live without my new acid denim jacket and many, many other fashion-y things lately (love her blog, but it's dangerous to your credit card, consider yourself warned).

OMGosh! I bought that same exact dress to take on Vacation (Cruise). But I ended up not wearing it, and returned it because I had already spent too much on clothes to take with me on this vacation. Seeing it on you makes me regret that I did. SOOOO cute! Looks great on you!
